Good morning! It's saturday! Kids have a 3 day weekend (and I'm really excited! I missed them since school has started and they're not home as much!) and this morning they already headed out the door to play outside. I decided that since it's October, we need breast cancer awareness printables.... Some have a pink border and then I sat there and added little polka dots (yes, I had too much time and coffee this morning, lol) - I had some of them vary in size, alternating in a pattern and some are the same. If you'd like to create stuff like this, a great and FREE program to do some basics is paint.net. That's how I can get the words to arch as such. It's limited, but I manage :) lol

Hey!!!! How are you?! I created some free business cards for you! Simply save the one (or all if you'd like) and then open in your favorite program to add text. Pretty simple :) I hope you enjoy. They are saved at traditional business card size of 2" x 3 1/2"

Well, I got looking at something this morning, that involved masking tape, and I noticed how it would look great and compare to washi tape and it'd be DIY washi tape :) I can stamp it, color it, everything! I can make it look exactly how I want to!

Well then it got me thinking besides DIY washi tape, what other crafts can you do with masking tape, because I want to know how many rolls I'll have to buy today! LOL. So I decided to compile a few of my favorite projects. All link love goes back to the original sites and posts in case you would like to see more of their project and when I'm done being inspired & putting the ideas to use, I'll take a few photos of mine too! :D

Here is my list of favorite and inspiring masking tape projects....

How about using the tape as ribbon! :) Cute!

Look at these little flowers......

And this is my personal favorite, use them at the top of the journaling cards (I've done this before with other stickers, etc! Quick, easy and so cute! )

AND I JUST LOVE THIS! I've done this before too! Isn't it really neat!

Here is where you can find some FREE digital tape!!!!! So many cute designs too! Pugly Pixel!!!

Cupcake toppers! Mini Flags!

Package up your items..........

Here's another cute and simple way to decorate a journal:
Remember, you can rubberstamp or draw on the tape to give it a similar look! Take a pencil, flip it over and look at the eraser then say to yourself "That would make cute polka dots!" then take the eraser, dip it in ink and go stamping! lol

Make Garland, place card holder, bunting, Decorate an envelope,

Make table cards!

You can even etch using masking tape (a little more of a process though, lol)HERE
